Timepieces from the future. Tokyoflash Watches. Known for creating watches that depict the time in puzzling ways. TokyoFlash has made being obtuse into an art form. The company scours Japan for up and coming designers who think they can convince us to ditch hands and digits. and embrace grids. oblongs and swirls instead.
